+/**
+ * The main entry point of the application that sets up the visual program.
+ *
+ * This method creates a graphical program with a 720x720 window and uses a rotating
+ * gradient-shaded rectangle as the primary visual element. It demonstrates the use
+ * of gradient shading and clipping through a compositional approach.
+ *
+ * The method performs the following actions:
+ * 1. Configures the application window size.
+ * 2. Constructs a conic gradient with a rotation of 54 degrees and full circular coverage.
+ * 3. Creates a star-shaped clip with configurable sharpness, radius, and number of sides.
+ * 4. Combines the gradient and clip into a composite shading style.
+ * 5. Defines a program loop where the rectangle with the gradient and clip combination
+ *    rotates around the center of the canvas while being redrawn continuously.
